SUMMARY:From Enemies to “Tacit Allies:” Zhou Enlai and Sino-American Relations
DESCRIPTION:A Book Talk with Dr. Chen Jian\n\n\n\nDr. CHEN Jian is the Director of the NYU Shanghai-ECNU Center on Global History\, Economy and Culture\, Distinguished Global Network Professor of History at NYU Shanghai and NYU\, Hu Shih Professor Emeritus at Cornell University\, Zijiang Distinguished Visiting Professor at East China Normal University\, and Global Fellow at the Woodrow Wilson Center. His seminal biography of Zhou Enlai\, was published by Harvard University Press. \n\n\n\nZhou Enlai\, China’s premier of 27 years\, was a central actor in the making of the Sino-American Rapprochement in the early 1970s\, one of the most important events in 20th-century world history. It not only turned Beijing and Washington from bitter enemies to “tacit allies” (in Kissinger’s words) but also transformed the orientation or even essence of the Global Cold War. Zhou was one of a small group of Chinese and American officials whose prior work had enabled President Jimmy Carter and his Chinese counterpart Deng Xiaoping to accomplish the historic normalization of the bilateral relations in 1979. Reviewing how Zhou handled all the seemingly unresolvable difficulties of his time and found solutions to them may help us occupy an insightful position to cope with the mortal challenges facing Chinese-American relations in the 21st century. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegister\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDownload Flyer

SUMMARY:Commemorating the 75th Anniversary of the Berlin Airlift & Sharing Veteran Memories
DESCRIPTION:The Consulate General of Germany in Atlanta and the Goethe-Zentrum Atlanta invite to join our friendship get-together with German food and an exhibition celebrating 75th anniversary of the Berlin Airlift.  \n\n\n\n– visit an exhibit about the Berliner Luftbrücke / Berlin AirLift on the occasion of the 75th anniversary– bring mementos from being stationed in or having visited Germany to share with fellow Germany enthusiasts– Open Mic to Share German-American Experiences\, stories and memories– enjoy a catered dinner– introduction of the brand-new GoetheATL project “Veterans for Freundschaft” \n\n\n\nSEATS ARE LIMITED. Get your tickets today! \n\n\n\nHistorical Background: \n\n\n\nThe Berlin Blockade (24 June 1948 – 12 May 1949) was one of the first major international crises of the Cold War. During the multinational occupation of post–World War II Germany\, the Soviet Union blocked the Western Allies’ railway\, road\, and canal access to the sectors of Berlin under Western control. The Soviets offered to drop the blockade if the Western Allies withdrew the newly introduced Deutsche Mark from West Berlin. \n\n\n\nThe Western Allies organized the Berlin Airlift (German: Berliner Luftbrücke\, lit. “Berlin Air Bridge”) from 26 June 1948 to 30 September 1949 to carry supplies to the people of West Berlin\, a difficult feat given the size of the city and the population. American and British air forces flew over Berlin more than 250\,000 times\, dropping necessities such as fuel and food\, with the original plan being to lift 3\,475 tons[clarification needed] of supplies daily.[citation needed] By the spring of 1949\, that number was often met twofold\, with the peak daily delivery totaling 12\,941 tons. Among these was the work of the later concurrent Operation Little Vittles in which candy-dropping aircraft dubbed “raisin bombers” generated much goodwill among German children. \n\n\n\nHaving initially concluded there was no way the airlift could work\, the Soviets found its continued success an increasing embarrassment. On 12 May 1949\, the USSR lifted the blockade of West Berlin\, due to economic issues in East Berlin\, although for a time the Americans and British continued to supply the city by air as they were worried that the Soviets would resume the blockade and were only trying to disrupt western supply lines. The Berlin Airlift officially ended on 30 September 1949 after fifteen months. The US Air Force had delivered 1\,783\,573 tons (76.4% of total) and the RAF 541\,937 tons (23.3% of total)\, totaling 2\,334\,374 tons\, nearly two-thirds of which was coal\, on 278\,228 flights to Berlin. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegister

SUMMARY:International Business Webinar Series: The Varieties of Populism – Their Rise and Impact on Business & Society
DESCRIPTION:Today\, we have seen the rise of many populist leaders and parties across the globe. This has led to rising interest in the phenomenon of populism. However\, this interest\, particularly in the public domain has led to naive and stereotypical definitions and views on populism based on a few prominent contemporary cases. Yet populism has a long historical tradition\, particularly in the United States and South America\, and has its roots all the way back to Ancient Rome. In this webinar\, we discuss the nature of populism and its varieties\, and why today it is a mixture of factors we have seen before. Some appear new and unique but are still within the bounds of our understanding. \n\n\n\nKey takeaways: \n\n\n\n\nGain a clearer perspective on the populist wave of the last decade.\n\n\n\nAcquire a better understanding of how companies have\, and can\, address\, the political reality they are facing.\n\n\n\nDevelop an understanding of how the political structure of different countries can influence their susceptibility to the influence of fringe political ideologies.\n\n\n\n\nThis webinar is FREE and open to all\, but registration is required. \n\n\n\nZoom details will be sent to all registered participants. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegister
